SUMMARY:Mats Andersson - 'Creative & Lost in Iceland'
DESCRIPTION:(As well as access to the live event\, you will receive a link to the recording\, which will be valid for 14 days) \nThe Swedish legend has turned his love of wildlife and landscapes into a hugely successful career\, with artistic flair and a love of mono. \nIn the first half of this session\, you’ll gain insights into Mats highly creative images\, including his sources of inspiration and ICM. \n\nIn the second half\, he’ll share his personal photos and stories from his seven trips around the ‘fairy island’ of Iceland. You’ll see he’s captured some of the most famous places – but still manages to create incredibly beautiful\, unique images. \n\nMats work is widely respected and admired. A recent quote from Black + White Photography magazine describes it best:\n‘At first glance\, it’s hard to distinguish whether a Mats Andersson print is a painting or photograph. He blends the abstract with the surreal\, resulting in landscape imagery that can simultaneously evoke feelings of unease\, tranquillity\, forbidding and calm. His style is instantly recognisable\, a dark\, gritty\, analogue look with deep blacks\, a rich grain structure and often plenty of motion\, which contributes to his painterly style.’   \n\n\nMats studied photography at the Industrial Art School in Gothenburg\, followed by a job as Art Director and Photographer in the advertising industry.\n\nSince 1989 he has worked as an AD and Photographer at Concret Advertising in Sweden. Mats is a Leica ambassador in Scandinavia and has published 13 books.

SUMMARY:Mark Littlejohn – ‘The World Isn’t Black And White – It’s Grey’
DESCRIPTION:(As well as access to the live event\, you will automatically receive a link to the recording\, which will be valid for 14 days) \n\nJoin Mark as he delves into the world of black and white imagery\, sharing insights on capturing mood and atmosphere in everyday landscapes. \n\nMark has always been a huge fan of black and white; ‘The work of Don McCullin springs to mind. Darkly atmospheric. And black and white is so capable when it comes to adding that little bit of mood\, that atmosphere.’ \nIt’s no coincidence that his favourite movie genre is Noir; ‘Brooding scenes from the mind of Raymond Chandler\, brought to life on the big screen.’  \nHe’s heard others say that often\, if a picture doesn’t work\, they’ll convert it to black and white. He doesn’t agree with this thinking. He’ll share how with some compositions; his mind just automatically converts them to black and white. \nMark’s work often features in national magazines\, he’s also written several articles about landscape photography and his unique approach to it. \nHe’s a previous winner of Take-a-View UK Landscape Photographer of the Year and more recently\, 11 of his images received Judges Commendations\, two Highly Commended and another runner up in the Classic View.

He’s enjoys working in low light\, exploring its’ nuances\, and transforming scenes from the real to the surreal. \nNoel is proud to be included on Forbes.com ‘Top 5 Travel Photographers to Watch Out For’ and offers exclusive photo tours through his company\, Wide Horizon Visuals.

DESCRIPTION:(As well as access to the live event\, you will receive a link to the recording\, which will be valid for 14 days) \nJoin award-winning photographer\, Mark Littlejohn\, on his journey from ‘reactive’ to ‘creative’ and see how an old dog can learn new tricks! \n\nWhen Mark first started landscape photography\, he lived near the Eden Valley and the Lake District – both well-known areas of outstanding natural beauty. \n\nHe admits to just wandering around\, pointing his camera in the general direction of all that beauty and pressing the shutter release every now and then. \n\nPeople loved his images and would call him creative. But he always denied this\, saying “I’m not a creative. I’m a reactive”. \n\nHe says this was because he reacted to the beauty around him. He’d never had to look for it. It was just there. \n\nBut when he moved to another outstanding area of beauty\, in the highlands of Scotland\, he was not taking the same pictures. \n\nHe was focussing on small scenes of reeds and kelp. \n\nHad he become creative? Had it been possible to teach an old dog new tricks? \n\nMark is an award-winning photographer based in Wester Ross\, Scotland. His work has been featured in a variety of national magazines and he has also written several articles in relation to landscape photography and his distinctive approach to the genre.
